Letter from John Brian McCormack to Mrs. Peck

John Brian McCormack writes to William Ferris' sister about the circumstances of her brother's death. He writes about the friendship he and William Ferris had shared, saying, "Bill's death comes home to me very close, for we had faced death together on many occasions, and many was the night he would come into my dugout and 'loosen up'." He then concludes his letter.
